RachComfy but not long lastingWhen I first got these boots I thought they were great. Working in a prison I am on my feet for up to 12 he's a day. Unfortunately after less than 3 months the sole detached from the boot. Closer inspection showed this was also happening on the other boot.
Fortunately the boots are still under guarantee and are being replaced by niton999 in the UK.

JensenGood BootsI have been using these as my everyday work boots for about 2 years now. They just started giving out about 2 months ago. The Tread didnt start going until long into the second year, Im only even retiring them after two years because the laces keep riping as I am trying to lace them.

Pedro1960Best lightweight boot so farI work in the private security sector and this means lots of hours standing and walking. I bought these boots years ago and they last until the sole was done. Very comfortable, feet friendly boots I used and very good for the hot days in Portugal. Until today they were the best spring/summer boots I had.

TampaRandyMost Comfortable BootI ordered these in the Desert boots size 10 and loved them so much decided to order them in a black boot as well. The size is pretty accurate. I'm a wedding photographer and often am on my feet for 10-12 hours, and need comfort yet has to protect my feet from twisting ankles as I'm extremely active and do alot of running in them. These are very comfortable. I do put a regular Dr Scholls pad as well for some extra comfort. I realized that for those hours I'm on a wedding I never once even thought about my feet, they were so comfortable. Have only had them for a month so can't comment on durability yet, but so far so good.
